Just got a new Windows 10 Pro box (Dell 3420, 16Gb RAM, 1Tb HD). Did a clean install using the NewsBin defaults (NB 6.72), and I get a "Giganews Unable to Connect to news server" error message. I've been using Giganews for years & my login information hasn't changed.

Is there something that Windows Defender does? Can I set up an exception? Internet connection is TWC/Spectrum 100Mbps which works well with my other programs. Help or tips would be appreciated.
